Children of Warriors

Reaching out…meeting human need…in Jesus’ name!

Children of Warriors™ is a ministry of Candlelight Christian Fellowship

Essay Contest – Video or Written
Application Submission April 18^th Thru June 21^st

The Child and Warrior

The “Child of a Warrior” is not limited to the standard mindset of “warrior” as one may suggest. A “Warrior” may be anyone from a single parent to a first responder or casualty of war.

First Local Activity for Children of Warriors Ministry

The first local activity set for this year is an “Essay Contest” (video or written).

A 1- to 2-minute video or 1- to 2-page written submission must be developed by a young person 18 years of age or under nominating a “warrior” for recognition.

We are looking for local persons from Kootenai and/or Shoshone Counties who exemplify resilience and strength in character, parenting, and/or guardianship amidst difficult circumstances. A “warrior” is that person who, through facing trial, has demonstrated heroic action and perseverance.

Pastor Amir Tsarfati

Amir Tsarfati was born in Jerusalem, Israel, to a Jewish family. He grew up in that region and has lived in Israel all his life. In 2001, Amir founded Behold Israel while maintaining his career in tourism. But it wasn’t until 2013 that it became a registered non-profit, allowing Amir to fulfill a greater calling for his life. That is when Behold Israel became a major provider of worldwide real-time access to reliable sources of news and information about Israel from within the powerful context of Bible history and prophecy.

Small Group Sign-Ups

Small Groups offer a place to connect with other believers in fellowship, to grow in our understanding of God’s Word, to meet the needs of others in your group, to become equipped for evangelism and to join in lifting one another’s burdens before the Lord. At Candlelight, we believe that the Christian life is not meant to be lived alone and that Small Groups are a way for people to engage in biblical understanding that helps them become more like Jesus in every area of their lives.

CULTURAL APOLOGETICS CLASS

Every Sunday – 9:30 am

Gym
Topics posted outside the GYM Door

DVD studies reveal the alarming state of Christianity today and what the church can do about it.

Proven ideas and the basics of apologetics to affirm the truth of the Bible in our modern age.

Many people both young and old do not hold a Christian worldview because they have not been taught the foundational truths of God’s Word. Dynamic speakers in these DVD series will proclaim the truth and authority of the Bible amid growing compromise, anti-God rhetoric, and secular activism.

Candlelight Christian Core Curriculum (C4)

C4 consists of studies that help bring that Big Picture into focus. It will touch on a variety of subjects that impact how we live our life in Christ. What do I believe? Why do I believe that and can I defend my beliefs? What does the Bible say about: relationships, marriage, parenting, my job or business, my money, government and political issues, the postmodern world I live in today?

We envision that C4 will give even a new believer a solid foundation on which to build – a good overview of the Bible and how to apply it to the issues that face us each day.

• Every Monday Evening beginning in the Fall of 2021
• 6 pm to 7:30 pm in the Sanctuary
• Childcare available from Infant to 5^th grade. Contact kids@candlelight.org before each course one week in advance.
